Chapter 155 Transfer
The spring rain that had lasted for several days finally stopped.
The maids at Nuanshanju were busy preparing tea and snacks.
"Is this all prepared for me?"
Zhao Yuanrong is here.
The April wind was still a little chilly, ruffling the loose hair on her temples, making her look even softer.
"Sister," Qu Ling went up to her, smiling and talking, "These are all prepared for you."
She took Zhao Yuanrong into the inner room and ordered someone to serve tea.
Sitting down, Zhao Yuanrong's eyes were filled with worry, "Princess Kangle is ill."
Qu Ling frowned.
"She will be sent to the imperial farm outside the palace to be nursed back to health. My uncle is very worried and wants to go with her."
There were quarrels in the Golden Palace every day, and the situation in the court was dangerous.
Zhao Yuanrong felt that the emperor might be both afraid and powerless, so he wanted to take the opportunity to hide away.
"How could Princess Kangle be ill?" Qu Ling was surprised. "When I went to the palace to express my gratitude, she looked very energetic."
Zhao Yuanrong rubbed the teacup with his hands and played. "In the spring, I flew a kite in the imperial garden. While chasing the kite, I fell and broke my head. I also had a high fever."
"I went to the palace a few days ago, and the maid who had served her since she was a child came to me secretly and said that the aunt in charge was keeping watch at night, but in fact the windows were left wide open every night, causing her to catch a cold."
He was already injured, and with the night wind blowing, how could he not get sick?
"She's a bit annoying, but her crime isn't punishable by death." Zhao Yuanrong took a deep breath. "Zhao Xuanyi is truly capable. He's willing to kill someone based on a single word from Song Yuzhen."
There is only this one princess in the palace, and the one who wants to kill her is either the queen or the prince.
Zhao Yuanrong went to ask Zhao Xuanyi.
Zhao Xuanyi was frank and did not hide anything.
She was really angry and laughed.
"I told mother, and she said to send her to the imperial farm."
A hint of helplessness flashed in Zhao Yuanrong's eyes.
Only my mother has always protected the bloodline of the Zhao family.
"My two princesses, Miss Wang is here." Tingqin came in and reported.
Qu Ling and Zhao Yuanrong tacitly agreed not to mention the affairs of the palace again.
The door curtain was lifted and Wang Linghe came in.
"Greetings, Princess." Wang Linghe bowed to Qu Lingfu and then turned his gaze to Zhao Yuanrong. "Who is this?"
"This is my sister." Qu Ling said.
"Greetings, Princess Jiaping." Wang Linghe saluted solemnly, suppressing his inner excitement.
The person in front of her might be the most important benefactor in her life.
Zhao Yuanrong smiled lightly, "Miss Wang, you are too polite. To be able to catch my sister's eye, you must be an extraordinary person."
There was a hint of admiration in her eyes.
"The Chamber of Commerce exposed the Ministry of Revenue's corruption and bribery, and Miss Wang played an indispensable role."
"I simply took advantage of my status," Wang Linghe said, not wanting to take credit for it. "It was the two princesses who opened the gap."
Qu Ling instigated Qu Han to injure Jiang Yangzong. Zhao Yuanrong delivered a secret letter to the Jinwu Guards to inform them that there were traitors in the teahouse. Wang Linghe and the Chamber of Commerce jointly submitted evidence of corruption in the Ministry of Revenue.
This led to the subsequent purge of officials by the princess.
The maid brought back the tea.
The conversation naturally turned to the upcoming wedding.
The wedding of Wang Yan and Qu Lianting was scheduled for half a month later, and all matters of the Wang family were handed over to Wang Linghe.
Wang Linghe was able to enter and leave the Marquis' Mansion openly without being suspected.
This carefully planned and calculated marriage has become useless at this point.
Marquis Dingxiang went crazy and talked nonsense when he met people.
The Song family was unable to take care of itself and was targeted by the crown prince and the eldest princess.
"My father's hair has turned mostly white recently." Wang Linghe didn't show it on his face, but he couldn't hide the joy in his tone.
Wang Zhongshan couldn't figure it out.
How could such a good situation change completely in just a few months?
He had planned everything, but he didn't expect that the prince would turn against the Song family.
He paid a huge price for this marriage with the Marquis's Mansion.
If the situation had not been turbulent, the person who arranged the marriage would have lost his head.
Unexpectedly, the Marquis' Mansion became an abandoned child.
He started to get scared.
He had no idea what to do next.
Should we keep doing nothing or continue to find a new backer for the Wang family?
A subtle expression flashed across Zhao Yuanrong's face. "So he asked you to come to the Marquis' Mansion and arrange the wedding?"
"Yes." Wang Linghe nodded.
"My father wasn't like this before. Maybe he's getting less courageous as he gets older."
Wang Linghe finished speaking and returned to the main topic, "I'm here today to deliver the betrothal gift."
No one cares about this marriage anymore, even on such a big day as the betrothal ceremony, no one cares.
She took out the list of betrothal gifts and handed it to Qu Ling.
Qu Ling opened it and found some ordinary things, nothing special.
"My two princesses, would you please come with me to take a look at the betrothal gifts from my Wang family?" Wang Linghe asked meaningfully.
Qu Ling and Zhao Yuanrong looked at each other and said, "Okay."
The three of them stood up and headed west across the courtyard.
The box containing the betrothal gifts was opened, and at first glance, it was indeed all the things on the gift list.
"Princess, please look."
Wang Linghe opened a secret compartment of a box, revealing neatly stacked gold bars.
"There are twenty boxes here, each containing gold bars. They are my thank-you gifts to the princess."
Wang Linghe has a unique charm.
"Miss Wang is so generous, graceful and outstanding." Zhao Yuanrong praised her highly.
Qu Ling had never seen her say so many compliments at once.
"I will transfer the Wang family's assets bit by bit," Wang Linghe said with a carefree smile. "I will also take over the Wang family's business bit by bit. When that happens, I hope the two princesses will help you."
"As for my money, the princess can have as much as she wants."
She was a merchant and knew very well that the struggle for power required money.
She just happened to have what the princess needed.
And the eldest princess can give her what she wants.
She set up a business using her mother's surname and registered it with the Ministry of Revenue.
With the eldest princess backing her up, she will bring down the Wang family bit by bit.
She wanted to let the Wang family's towering building collapse into ruins, and then let the You family rise from the ruins.
After Wang Linghe left, Zhao Yuanrong still sighed, "She was also a character."
His biological mother died early, and his father made his concubine his legal wife and she gave birth to his younger brother.
Not only can she live well, but she can also gain her father's trust and get involved in the business.
"She's better than me," Zhao Yuanrong said with admiration in his eyes. "I stand on my mother's shoulders, but she is an army all by herself."
After sending Zhao Yuanrong away, Tingqin said, "The fifth girl is making a big fuss."
"Let her make a fuss."
Qu Ling sprinkled a handful of fish food along the waterside pavilion, admiring the vitality of spring.
She has seen many noisy people.
Qu Lianting doesn't even have one tenth of Qu Lianzhi's skills.
Qu Lianzhi hid in front of the Bodhisattva, and he was still a smart man.
This Qu Lianting.
A clown.
He had ordered her to be locked up and never released her.
Four months have passed in a blink of an eye, and I haven't seen the sun.
Good people are driven crazy by imprisonment.
Poor girl, she still thought it was He who held her captive.
Little did they know that He had her hair shaved and never returned to the Marquis' Mansion.
There are not many people left in the second house.
"She said she wanted to meet her brother, otherwise she would not marry." Tingqin said.
Qu Ling stroked the pattern on his sleeve that was outlined with gold thread.
Only a year after returning to Beijing, she already had the aura of an eldest princess between her brows.
"I have nothing to do. Today the Wang family is offering marriage proposals. She should have been invited to show up. Bring her to the waterside pavilion."
Not marrying?
Oh.
